Hello

I am using Fire Fox browser on a Samsung Tablet. The new version of this browser has a bit of a learning curve. Anyway, I very much miss the app from the previous version ( GITHUB ) that provided a bypass for paywalls for newspapers.

I read this app is under review by all concerned. My suggestion is - please allow this app to run in the new browser.

Thank you.

Hi

We hope to include support for more add-ons with future updates. However, the team is evaluating how to do this in a way that avoids the security and compatibility issues we had with previous versions of Firefox.
